presidio and AnonLFI2.0
These are complements rather than competitors: Presidio provides general-purpose PII detection and redaction across diverse data types, while AnonShield/AnonLFI2.0 specializes in structure-preserving pseudonymization for security incident response and GDPR compliance, allowing them to be used in sequence within the same privacy-protection pipeline.
